The Ruins of Detroit

photo copyright Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre

This is one of many hauntingly beautiful images from photographers Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre of downtown Detroit in a series called The Ruins of Detroit. I don’t know why but this looks to me like something out of East Berlin. (ah I just now noticed they also did a set on East Germany so there you go).

These photos are gorgeous but one can’t help but feel really depressed to see these buildings in such sorrowful neglect.
